overheating

I'm asking this question because I've tried many tips to solve they don't work and it sounds like a non-fixed bug ubuntu.

My problem is with overheating. I've recently installed Ubuntu Precise 12.04 LTS alongside with MS Windows 7 on my notebook Samsung 530U. I'm using both via dual-boot mode. I've no heating problem with MS Win 7 and the fan speed is normal even with long run utilization. However, when booting with Ubuntu and after short time, the PC got very hot and the fan was running at max speed. I installed a tool called Jupiter, I put it in "Power Saving" mode but no result. Now, I avoid using ubuntu because I fear it'll damage my all new notebook.

Please can you give me a "FINAL" fix of this problem (lot of answers exist but I don't know the more accurate and efficient one).

Thank you in advance.
